I am no fan of his as of this moment — and will never be a fan again unlike five years ago, owing to his being willingly used by Glueria boys — but I should admit that he is simply the best pound-for-pound boxer despite the fact that he is somewhat a false symbol of national unity for me.

What I will never forget about him in that fight was not only how he dominated the ageing De La Hoya in all eight rounds, but his newest sablay answer on his post-fight interview with HBO’s Larry Merchant:

“I’d like to thank the people…and the Vice President of the Philippines (Noli De Castro), and to Governor Chavit Singson, and to all the congressmen and all the mayors here tonight…”

Nothing new…mga Kampi boys nga unang nagsiakyatan sa ring after the DLH surrender. Balato money after junking the impeachment complaint against the fake president of the land in the offing, eh? Or is it that Pekyaw said it because he is beholden to these pieces of shit in our country more than the people who cheered for him in that fight?
